Do you all believe Mett would have eventually won the job from Lee in 2011?

Just curious. I believe he should have been named the starter the minute he arrived, from a talent stand point. I just don't think he was mature mentally enough to handle the pressure.

(Feels crazy to type the last sentence since JJ was "mature enough"... my brain hurts, I need coffee)

Have people forgotten how bad Mett was in 2012?

We would have won the ship if JJ had gotten shown the door

Mett was 11-1 in Juco and maybe forcing him into a Miles-esque offense limited him in 2012. How can one go 11-1 with a awesome stats to junk from one year to another except for scheme. Butt,

Dude, really? Our starter was out past curfew, drunk, and curb stomping a guy laying on the ground at a bar at 2 am.

All Mett ever did wrong was grab some girls arse while he was a true freshman. And 2 years later you think he wasn't ok to play qb after lighting up records in JUCO and being national player of the year?
